Digital Desk | United Nations, Sep 25 (IANS) 'A terrorist country is asking me that? Come on! With these words External Affairs Minister (EAM) S Jaishankar shut down a Pakistani journalist who barged into a news conference here on Friday and shouted comments about India. With an ironic smile framing those remarks, Jaishankar faced down the disrupter at the joint news conference by him and Liberia's Foreign Minister Sara Beysolow Nyanti on the launch of the Group of Friends on Safety and Security of Shipping and Seafarers. When the reporter persisted in yelling, India's Permanent Representative P Harish told him, You hear him loud and clear! On Thursday, an Indian media reporter had asked Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif as he was walking by the entrance to the General Assembly, Prime Minister, when will you stop harbouring terrorists? and When will you prosecute Lashkar-e-Taiba chief Hafiz Saeed? Unlike EAM Jaishankar who could give a withering answer, Sharif quickened his pace, looking away unable to reply. In a video circulating on social media, Sharif was seen arriving at the UN headquarters, as reporter asked: Prime Minister, when will you stop harbouring terrorists? Sharif offered no response. The issue was raised again when he left the UN premises. Reporter asked, When will you prosecute Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) chief Hafiz Saeed? Sharif once again declined to answer, walking past the journalists without addressing the question. Hafiz Saeed is the founder of the Pakistan-based proscribed terror group LeT and one of Indias most-wanted global terrorists. He remains a UN-listed global terrorist with a $10 million bounty placed on him by the United States government. Earlier on Wednesday, India lashed out at Pakistan at the United Nations, telling Islamabad to address its struggling, bailout-dependent economy rather than harbour territorial ambitions or support cross-border terrorism. At the UN Human Rights Council, Indian diplomat Kshitij Tyagi hit back at Pakistans attempts at diversion, saying aggressive posturing could not rescue its struggling economy. Pakistan would better serve its people by focusing on development, rather than by coveting territory of others or exporting terror, because neither these nor its theatrics in the Council would help repay the loans its economy survives on, Tyagi remarked. Tyagi also laid bare Islamabads domestic record, citing the violent suppression of civilians in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), where mass protests have been met with lethal force while authorities restricted access to essential food, fuel and medicine This Council was told last Friday of scores of civilians killed since June in the territory Pakistan occupies, of students arrested in Islamabad and Rawalpindi, and of food and medicine held back. When those accounts were given, Pakistan's answer was a point of order. If any delegation in this room meets every objective criterion for this Council's scrutiny, it is Pakistan, he said, highlighting Pakistans glaring governance failures.

READY TO SACRIFICE: Saudi Troops Warned Amid Houthi Attacks; MBS 'Begs' Turkey, Pakistan For Help
Saudi Arabia is preparing for a potentially wider confrontation with the Iran-aligned Houthis as attacks on the kingdom intensify. Saudi Grand Mufti Sheikh Saleh bin Fawzan Al-Fawzan has called on troops stationed along the kingdoms borders to be prepared to sacrifice their lives fighting the Houthis until the group is ousted from power. The warning comes as Saudi-backed Yemeni forces face pressure on the ground, while Houthi missile and drone attacks have targeted Saudi territory. Riyadh is also turning to its regional defence partners. Saudi, Turkish and Pakistani military chiefs are preparing to meet to discuss support under the Mecca Joint Defence Agreement, signed in August. The pact states that an attack on one of the three parties is to be treated as an attack on all three. However, the agreement does not automatically mean Turkish or Pakistani forces will enter the Yemen battlefield. Discussions are expected to focus on military coordination and possible support for Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, footage released by Houthi military media appears to show Saudi-backed military vehicles being hit and catching fire, although the location, timing and extent of the damage have not been independently verified.

'When Will You Prosecute Hafiz Saeed?': Pakistan PM Dodges India's Terror Questions At The UN
A simple four-word question exposed Pakistan's Prime Minister at the United Nations. When will you prosecute Hafiz Saeed? Shehbaz Sharif had no answer not once, but twice, as reporters confronted him entering and exiting UN headquarters. Hafiz Saeed, founder of Lashkar-e-Taiba, is serving 31 years in a Pakistani jail for terrorism financing, but India's NIA has now named him Accused Number 8 in the Pahalgam terror attack conspiracy, alleging his continued influence over militant networks despite imprisonment. This comes a year after Sharif's own UN remark that terrorists would be oaming the streets of New York or London if Pakistan hadn't controlled them backfired badly. This video breaks down Sharif's silence, who Hafiz Saeed really is, India's continued pressure at the UN, and why a Prime Minister who champions Pakistan's anti-terror record couldn't answer one simple question.
